Check directory arguments for consistency

2009-05-13 Thread Christian Rössel
configure checks it's standard directory arguments for consistency, e.g. exec_prefix prefix bindir sbindir libexecdir etc. Is there a way to check my own directory argument in the same way, e.g. by adding my directory variable to the list of standard directory variables. Or is there a ready to use

AC_OPENMP broken for IBM xl Fortran compilers

2011-02-18 Thread Christian Rössel
Hi, AC_OPENMP returns "none needed" for the IBM xl Fortran compilers (xlf*, bgxlf*, mpixlf*). This is wrong, you need to use -qsmp=omp. configure tries to compile following program: | program main | call omp_get_num_threads | end Compilation succeeds without specifying any Ope
